To the crowd below, Yang Jian knew that he had achieved his goal, Xia Zhaohui and Li Yuan summoned them into their imperial study, leaving only Yang Yong, Gao Ying, Su Wei, and Yang Su, Yang Su has been transferred from the city manager to the capital, and served as the provincial envoy and the imperial envoy Zhongcheng, and anyone can see that the emperor is favored by Yang Su.

After Yang Su returned to Beijing, Yang Yong had thought about repairing the relationship with Yang Su, and sent Zou Wenteng, the head of the East Palace, to invite Yang Su to the East Palace for a banquet, but he didn't expect to touch a soft nail, Yang Su thought that he was an important minister of the country, and it was inconvenient to make friends with the East Palace, so he sent Zou Wenteng back, and almost made Zou Wenteng half angry.

For Yang Su's reply, Yang Yong was not angry, now the three most important ministers who are most valued by the emperor, Gao Ying is friendly with himself, Su Wei hangs the title of prince Shaobao, which is equivalent to his own master, if Yang Suzhen is good friends with himself, the emperor does not know if he will have suspicion after learning about it, Yang Su is so unkind to himself, and it is not a good thing to spread to the ears of his father, but Yang Yong is completely dead and reconciled with Yang Su.

Yang Jian smiled and said: "Yuan Qing, Li Qing sent Chen Guo, he has been gone for more than half a year, he must have a lot of understanding of Chen Guo's reality and reality, it is inconvenient to talk about it in detail in the court today, here are all important ministers of the country, and the two Aiqing can talk about Chen Guo's trip in detail." ”

"Yes." Yuan Hui and Li Yuan hurriedly got up, each saluted the emperor, the two looked at each other, Yuan Hui sat down again, Li Yuan stood in the middle, and explained the trip to the emperor and the important ministers of Chen Guo.

After the two arrived in Chen Guo, it had been three months since Chen Shuding ascended to the pole, Li Yuan first took a detailed account of Chen Guo's observations and experiences, and then talked about the affairs of Chen Guo's court, at this time, Chen Shubao's injuries were still not fully healed, and he was recuperating from his injuries. The power of Chen slowly shifted from the hands of Empress Dowager Liu to the hands of Chen Shujian, the king of Changsha.

For Empress Dowager Liu, Chen Shubao and Chen Shujian are both her sons. And Chen Shujian also had the merit of saving the prince when Chen Shuling murdered the prince, she was inconvenient for a woman to control political affairs, not to mention that Empress Dowager Liu was also stabbed several times when Chen Shuling rebelled, although it was not a vital point, she also needed to recuperate, and it was also a convenient move to give power to Chen Shujian.

After Chen Shujian leaned into power and the opposition, he was arrogant and indulgent, and political affairs, no matter how big or small, were decided by him. aroused the dissatisfaction of Kong Fan, the official Shangshu and Shi Wenqing, the Zhongshu Sheren, and others, and looked for Chen Shujian's shortcomings day and night, and went to Chen Shubao to complain.

Although Chen Shubao is recuperating from his injuries. But the sensitivity of power made him very suspicious of Chen Shujian, for the Empress Dowager Liu. Chen Shubao and Chen Shujian can accept whoever is in power, but Chen Shubao can't let Chen Shujian hold the power, it is a matter of imperial power, even if he is a brother, how can he rest assured, not to mention that the wound on his neck was cut by another half-brother, so he transferred another brother Chen Jian to the court. to thin Chen Shujian's power. Later, Chen Shujian was simply transferred out of the capital. Let him serve as the assassin of Jiangzhou.

For such an obvious power-cutting behavior, Chen Shujian is naturally unwilling to comply. Relying on the support of the Empress Dowager Liu, he refused to hand over power and went to Jiangzhou to take office, and Dachen Chaotang saw that there was another battle.

After listening to Li Yuan's description, the emperor and all the ministers showed a hint of a smile, and Yang Jian was more determined to kill Chen, and asked Li Yuan: "Li Aiqing, as far as you know, since the king of Changsha refuses to leave Beijing, will it cause civil strife in Chen?" ”

Everyone hurriedly pricked up their ears and listened carefully, if Chen was in turmoil at this time, it would be simply heaven helping the Great Sui to destroy Chen, Li Yuan hesitated for a moment before saying: "Your Majesty, the King of Changsha and Lord Chen's mother are compatriots, and now the Empress Dowager Chen Guoliu is still here, Weichen thinks that it may cause internal turmoil in Chen State, and it will not be civil strife." ”

"Oh" Yang Jian and other important ministers in the hall could not hide the disappointment on their faces, Yang Yong persuaded on the side: "Father Emperor, the Great Sui unified the north, the army and the people are several times that of the Chen State, and several fierce battles with the Turks, the elite soldiers, on the other hand, the Chen State, the Jiangnan people were originally weak, and there was no one else around the opponent except the Great Sui, and the Great Sui had been polite to Chen Guo in the past few years, resulting in the arrogance of the Chen State, and the martial arts. ”

When Yang Yong said this, everyone was a lot more relaxed, and Gao Ying echoed beside him: "Your Majesty, Sui is strong and Chen is weak, and it is with an upright teacher to break the enemy." ”

Yang Jian laughed: "What the prince and Gao Qing said is reasonable, what if Chen Guo is not chaotic, the Great Sui has a million strong soldiers, which is enough to destroy Chen!" Xiang Yuanhui and Li Yuan waved their hands: "The two Aiqing have a hard journey, I promise you a three-day vacation, and then go to the court after three days." ”

The two hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Knowing that the emperor still had to discuss the matter of Chen with the ministers, he retreated and retreated outside the palace.

Li Yuan went out of the palace, after breaking up with Yuan Hui, he stood outside the palace for a while, but he didn't know whether to go home or go to the palace, when he exited the palace just now, the prince gave him a look, naturally he had the intention of going to the East Palace, if it was before he got married, of course Li Yuan would not be embarrassed, at this time, thinking of his wife Dou Shiya's words, it is not appropriate to get too close to the prince, Li Yuan stomped his feet, or did not go to the direction of the East Palace.

When Yang Yong returned to the East Palace, it had been more than an hour, and when he saw the chief manager Zou Wenteng, he first asked, "Where is Tang Gong?" ”

Zou Wenteng was stunned: "His Royal Highness is talking about Tang Gong Li Yuan, and the villain has never seen him." ”

Yang Yong was a little puzzled in his heart, he obviously hinted to Li Yuan to let him come to the East Palace, could it be that Li Yuan didn't understand, Yang Yong looked for Li Yuan to learn more about the affairs of Jiangnan, but at this time, there was no need to be in a hurry, and when he heard that Li Yuan didn't come, he waved his hand: "Forget it if you don't come." ”

Zou Wenteng didn't go down, and said to Yang Yong: "Your Highness, Lu Ben is here, he has been waiting in the side courtyard for more than an hour. ”

"Lu Ben?" Yang Yong was a little puzzled, he really shouldn't have come, he shouldn't have come.

Lu Ben is an old man in Suiguo's mansion, once served as Yang Jian's guard captain, and also made great contributions on the road to Yang Jian's seizure of power, Yang Jian became the first time after the left prime minister dispersed the court, the ministers went out of the Tiantai Palace, and saw that the court was lined up with the left prime minister's honor guard to send Yang Jian to the prime minister's mansion, and the hundred officials were stunned on the spot, I don't know if they would work in the Tiantai Palace or the prime minister's mansion in the future. Those who want to be rich and noble will follow me to the East Palace. ”

It was Lu Ben this

, the Manchu Dynasty ministers moved their steps, went to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion. When the East Palace was born, the guards of the East Palace used the royal land as the reason. Yang Jian was not allowed to enter, and it was Lu Ben who drove these guards away, so Yang Jian lived in the Taigong Palace, and changed the Taigong Palace to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It's just that after Yang Jian ascended to the pole, Lu Ben became friendly with Zheng Yi and Liu Fang, and Yang Jian was immediately dissatisfied with the friendship between the captain of the ground guard and the minister around him, and replaced Lu Ben's position with Li Yuantong. gave Lu Ben a five-grade general of the terrain ceremony, which can be regarded as a reward for his past contributions.

Although General Yitong was promoted several levels higher than Sergeant Siwu, Lu Ben felt that he was condescending to the position of General Yitong with his own merits. I was too aggrieved, and I expressed my dissatisfaction several times. This made Yang Jian even more displeased, but it was only because of the old man in Suiguo's Mansion that he did not deal with Lu Ben.

Yang Yong naturally heard about Lu Bendi's words, and he didn't have a good impression of Lu Ben, so he didn't see it, and turned his head to think about it. Lu Ben is the old man of the Suiguo Mansion in the end. When I went to the East Palace, I couldn't even see myself. Unable to speak, he commanded, "Take him to the main hall to meet me." ”

"Yes." Zou Wenteng just went down not long ago. A heavy footsteps sounded outside, and a military general in his thirties walked in, and when he saw Yang Yong, he hurriedly knelt down on one leg: "Weichen see His Royal Highness the Prince, the prince is a thousand years old!" Chitose! Chichitose! ”

"General Lu, you are an old man from the Suiguo Mansion, and it can also be said that you have grown up watching this palace, you don't have to be so polite, get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince!" Lu Ben still relied on the etiquette before getting up and retreating to the side and sitting down.

A maid brought up two fragrant teas and placed them beside Yang Yong and Lu Ben respectively, Yang Yong took a sip of it, and the fragrant taste suddenly entered the tip of the tongue, and the fatigue of the day seemed to disappear without a trace.

Yang Yong loved to drink tea in his previous life, but he could only drink some ordinary tea for more than ten yuan a tael, and now it is inexplicable to the era of thousands of years ago, when he drank tea for the first time, he found that the tea at this time was more difficult to drink than the low-grade tea in his previous life, and there was a strong bitter taste.

At this time, Lu Yu was not born, the book "The Book of Tea" naturally could not be talked about, the origin of tea has three theories, one is from Shennong's, one is from the Western Zhou Dynasty, the other is from the Qin and Han dynasties, no matter which one, there are five or six hundred years recently, but the tea is still rough, most of the collected tea leaves are directly dried, and then boiled in water, there is no fried tea, it is inevitable that it is bitter and astringent.

After Yang Yong found out about this, he naturally thought of improving, although he didn't know how to fry the tea, but as long as the mouth moved, he had his own servants to test, and the servants had mastered how to fry the tea after a few more attempts, Yang Yong didn't think about roasting the tea for money, but because he didn't pay attention to the secrecy when frying, he accidentally leaked out, and there was a source of money, Yang Yong didn't bother much, and simply let the method of roasting tea be made public.

Originally, tea was mostly sold to the grassland or popular in some small households, but now roasted tea has spread in Guanzhong, which has also made tea enter the aristocratic homes on a large scale in advance. Lu Ben picked up the teacup, took a sip like Yang Yong, and praised: "It's still the tea fragrance here of the prince!" ”

Roasted tea has only been popular for seven or eight years, as for where it originated, everyone is indifferent, Yang Yong after the roasted tea was spread, it was strictly forbidden to know that the matter was leaked, although some people couldn't control their mouths, but Yang Yong was only ten years old at the time, and others didn't believe it when they heard it, only those who drank Yang Yong's first order to fry tea in the Guogong Mansion knew the details.

A military general like Lu Ben originally disdained to drink tea, but he had to pretend to drink it if he didn't drink it when he entered the East Palace, and patted the prince's ass by the way, not to mention that Yang Yong's refined tea leaves did quench his thirst and had a strong fragrance.

Regarding Lu Ben's praise, Yang Yong was noncommittal, and asked directly: "General Lu, it is difficult to get the East Palace today, but what's the matter?" ”

"Wechen originally wanted to come to see His Highness often, but I was afraid that the emperor would blame him when he found out, so I delayed the future and came to see His Highness today to show Wechen's sincerity to His Highness." Lu Ben's face was sincere.

Yang Yong said unhappily: "You are an old man from the Suiguo Mansion, visiting the palace, how can the emperor blame him?" ”

"Yes, yes, Weichen thinks badly." Lu Ben hurriedly apologized, and when he saw the displeasure on Yang Yong's face, he hurriedly said: "Weichen actually has something to ask His Highness for today. ”

"You say, as long as it's not too difficult, this palace can promise you." Yang Yong, as the crown prince, if it weren't for the guards, I don't know how many people would beg each other every day, and his perception of Lu Ben suddenly dropped another level.

Lu Ben suddenly swallowed and spit out: "I don't know what the prince is to Su Wei...... What does Master Su think? ”

"Su Shaobao has excellent intelligence, he is still a rare national soldier, and he is also the mentor of this palace, this palace has always only been respectful, how could General Lu ask about him?"

Hearing Yang Yong's answer, a look of disappointment appeared on Lu Ben's face: "It is true that Master Su is a national soldier, but he only holds five positions, is it inappropriate?" ”

Su Wei's implementation of the Juntian system and light taxation laid a solid foundation for the stability of the Great Sui, Wei Chi Hui was not so much defeated in the military, but rather defeated in Su Wei's Juntian system, the emperor was also favored by Su Wei, first appointed as Nayan and the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and then concurrently served as Dali Qing, Jing Zhaoyin, and Yu Shi Dafu, if you add his position as the crown prince Shaobao, Su Wei is not a five-position but a six-position, which naturally caused the dissatisfaction of many people in the court, Yang Yong suddenly realized, I am afraid that Lu Ben is also one of them.

Knowing Lu Ben's intention, Yang Yong said categorically: "Lord Su's official position is ordered by the emperor, if he is incompetent, the emperor will naturally judge, and his subordinates can not discuss, if General Lu has nothing else, the palace will send off guests." ”

Lu Ben's face was full of unwillingness, and he had to say again: "Your Highness......"

Yang Yong ignored him and shouted, "Come on, send off guests." ”

Zou Wenteng and several guards entered in response, and Lu Ben was unwilling to salute Yang Yong: "Weichen retreats." ”

After Lu Ben left, the more Yang Yong thought about it, the more he felt that it would not be so simple, Lu Ben ran to the East Palace to complain just because he was jealous of Su Wei, you must know that Su Wei was hanging the title of the crown prince and young protector, he hurriedly ordered: "Someone, please Mr. Zhang Qiu." ”
